SEAN HANNITY (HOST): And I've appealed to some people. I've actually had some arguments with people that you know I'm friendly with on this program, and I don't really care. I'm just like, tell me what you want. And what I would hear, you know, nothing but crickets, it was pissing me off. Because I feel the American people were getting hurt at that point. If there's something specific you needed and there were people that gave me very specific things that they wanted and I appreciated their honesty.
And then I communicated it to, you know, every side and I tried to, you know, do my little part. I -- by the way, I don't want to overstate a part I played in this. I'm just saying I talked to these guys, a number of them, and with the goal of them following through on their commitments to America and following through on their promise to investigate.
